• Reclining Figure on Rug

    Reclining Figure on Rug

    $785.00

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking mid-century figurative composition that presents a reclining nude stretched languidly across a rug with vivid blue foliage, executed in watercolour onto paper and framed behind glass.

    The figure is simplified yet sensuous, her body rendered in soft, flowing contours that emphasise volume and repose rather than anatomical precision. She rests against a boldly divided backdrop, saturated red to one side and an expanse of blue to the other, creating a dynamic, modernist tension between figure and space.

    The style reflects a distinctly mid-century approach: flattened perspective, expressive simplification, and an emphasis on shape and colour over fine detail. The body is articulated through translucent washes of warm peach, apricot, and blush tones, allowing the underpainting and brush movement to remain visible. Shadows are suggested rather than defined, giving the figure a softness that feels intimate and atmospheric.

    The surrounding, painted in rhythmic strokes of cerulean and turquoise, forms a decorative, almost pattern-like base. These repeated leaf motifs introduce movement and contrast, their cool tones heightening the warmth of the nude figure. The brushwork throughout is loose and confident – gestural in the background, more fluid and diluted across the body lending the piece an immediacy and painterly charm.

    Overall, the work balances bold colour blocking with gentle figuration, embodying the modern aesthetic characteristic of mid-century figurative painting.

    This watercolour on paper is framed behind glass and presented in a complementary gilt frame.  Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • The Patience of Form

    The Patience of Form

    $1,526.00

    Available

    Free UK Shipping Only.

    A large and striking mid-century abstract figurative composition that presents a stylised female nude seated in a contemplative pose,  executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1950.

    The figure is simplified into soft, sculptural forms, her facial features intentionally omitted, allowing the focus to rest on shape, balance and presence rather than identity. One arm bends gently at the elbow, while the body folds into itself with an elegant rhythm, creating a quiet tension between strength and vulnerability.

    Executed in a modernist mid-century style, the work embraces abstraction without fully abandoning figuration. The anatomy is reduced to rounded, almost cubist volumes, with limbs and torso articulated through blocks of colour rather than strict line. The proportions are subtly exaggerated, particularly in the thighs and hips, giving the composition a grounded, monumental quality despite its intimate scale.

    The palette is cool and harmonious, dominated by muted blues, soft greys and chalky whites. Gentle blush pinks and earthy browns warm the lower half of the figure, while small accents of deeper blue and rust add visual punctuation. The pale, textured background enhances the sense of stillness, allowing the figure to emerge almost like a fresco against a washed wall.

    Brushwork is expressive yet controlled. Loose, visible strokes define contour and volume, with areas of dry-brushed texture that lend the surface a tactile, slightly weathered character. Edges remain soft rather than sharply delineated, reinforcing the painting’s quiet, introspective mood.

    This large oil on canvas is well presented in a wide-profile wood frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has minor scuffs. 

    Size: 105 x 60.5 cm (including frame)

  • Windowlight Mosaic

    Windowlight Mosaic

    $793.00

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A radiant mid-century composition that balances abstraction with suggestion, executed in oil onto canvas.

    This painting evokes the feeling of light filtering through a window onto a lively garden. Fragmented planes and overlapping shapes hint at foliage, architectural lines and perhaps a vase or tabletop, yet the subject remains intentionally fluid – an interplay between interior and exterior, structure and nature.

    Executed in a distinctly mid-century modern style, the work embraces geometric simplification and flattened perspective. Forms are broken into angular shards and soft-edged blocks, arranged in a rhythmic grid-like composition that feels both ordered and spontaneous. There is a gentle Cubist influence in the faceting of shapes, yet the palette keeps the mood light and optimistic rather than analytical.

    The colour palette is fresh and luminous: powder blue and sky tones form a cool foundation, layered with warm buttery yellows and soft apricot hues. Accents of sage green, lavender, and deeper violet punctuate the composition, while subtle flashes of pink add vibrancy. The harmonious contrast between warm and cool tones creates a sense of depth without relying on traditional modelling.

    Brushstrokes are confident yet restrained. Paint is applied in smooth, deliberate layers, with visible directional strokes that follow the geometry of each shape. The surface retains a soft, matte texture, enhancing the tactile quality of the canvas while maintaining clarity of form.

    Overall, the piece captures the optimistic spirit of mid-century abstraction: light-filled, balanced, and quietly joyful.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wood frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Where the Sky Rests

    Where the Sky Rests

    $1,381.00

    Available

    Free UK Shipping Only.

    A beautifully restrained mid-century modern landscape depicting a sparse rural settlement set beneath an expansive, cloud-laden sky,  executed in oil onto canvas.

    Two low, dark-roofed cottages sit quietly along the horizon line, their whitewashed walls rendered in simplified, almost geometric forms. A solitary vertical pole punctuates the composition, while angular planes of earth in the foreground lead the eye gently inward, suggesting embankments or cultivated land.

    Executed in a distinctly modernist style, the composition embraces minimalism and balance. The buildings are reduced to essential shapes, their proportions slightly flattened, creating a calm, contemplative atmosphere. Space is expressed through broad horizontal bands – sky, land, and foreground – rather than through intricate detail, giving the work its serene, architectural clarity.

    The colour palette is muted and earthy, dominated by soft sand tones and deep browns. The sky is a subtle wash of pale grey with faint hints of green and blue, lending the scene a quiet, overcast luminosity. Dark charcoal accents in the rooftops and vertical elements provide contrast and anchor the composition.

    Brushstrokes are smooth and controlled, with thin, even applications of paint that emphasise shape over texture. Areas of soft blending in the sky contrast with the more defined, deliberate edges of the buildings and landforms. The overall effect is one of stillness and introspection.

    This oil on canvas is well presented in a well-suited wood frame with a grey-brown finish and an inner linen lining. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition. 

    Size: 79 x 89 cm (including frame)

  • Clocks & Chimes

    Clocks & Chimes

    Sold

    SOLD

    A quietly meditative 20th century abstraction from 1971 that distils the essence of time and rhythm into a refined visual language of line and tone, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The canvas is divided horizontally: a calm expanse of warm, creamy white above, and below it, layered bands of muted browns and soft taupes that read like measured intervals or tonal reverberations.

    Two linear elements punctuate the stillness. A slender yellow arc rises gently from the lower edge, its curve suggesting cyclical motion and the continuous sweep of time. To the right, a vertical red line edged subtly in yellow stands upright and precise, like the strike of a bell or the steady mark of an hour. Together, they evoke both movement and resonance: the visual equivalent of a clock’s face and its chime.

    The style is characteristically mid-century in its clarity and reduction. Forms are simplified to essential gestures, and depth is created through tonal layering rather than perspective. The palette is warm and harmonious: creamy neutrals and earthy browns provide a grounded field, while the yellow and red introduce quiet luminosity and rhythm.

    Brushwork is smooth and controlled, with matte, even applications that emphasise colour fields over texture. The horizontal bands are softly blended, creating a sense of gentle gradation,  like sound fading into silence,  while the linear accents remain crisp and deliberate.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a champagne toned wood frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some scuffs as shown.

  • Great White Shark at Sea

    Great White Shark at Sea

    $768.00

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking naïve style contemporary painting of a dramatic maritime scene, executed in oil onto panel by British artist Matt Rix.

    The painting depicts a monumental shark gliding through calm, cerulean waters while, above the surface, a tall-masted sailing ship drifts serenely under a rose-tinted sky.

    Executed in a contemporary naïve style, the work embraces flat perspective and bold simplification. Forms are clearly outlined, proportions intentionally exaggerated for emphasis, and spatial depth is suggested through horizontal bands of colour rather than traditional modelling. The shark’s commanding scale is dramatically larger than the distant ship, enhancing the dreamlike, storytelling quality of the piece, lending it a subtly surreal charm.

    The colour palette is both playful and harmonious. Layers of blue shift from deeper tones below to lighter hues near the surface, while the sky transitions through warm blush and coral pinks. The dark charcoal body of the shark anchors the composition, contrasted by its pale underbelly and small accents of red in the mouth. The restrained palette heightens visual clarity and impact.

    Brushstrokes are smooth and controlled, with areas of flat, even application that emphasise shape over texture. Subtle tonal variations within the water suggest gentle movement, while the sky’s gradient appears softly blended. The overall finish is clean and deliberate, reinforcing the naïve aesthetic while maintaining a confident contemporary edge.

    This oil on board is housed in a brown painted wood frame with an inner gilt window. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

    British artist Matt Rix spent his childhood in South Africa and now lives with his family on a small holding in rural North Wales.

  • Humpback Whale at Sea

    Humpback Whale at Sea

    $819.00

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A bold and theatrical contemporary naïve style painting that depicts a monumental humpback whale gliding beneath the legendary ocean liner Lusitania, executed in oil onto panel by British artist Matt Rix.

    The composition is split horizontally between sea and sky: above the waterline, the iconic steamship moves calmly across a pale grey horizon, its three red funnels releasing soft plumes of smoke; below, a vast humpback whale dominates the scene, its immense body rendered in simplified, graphic form.

    Executed in a distinctive naïve style, the work embraces flattened perspective and exaggerated scale. The whale appears far larger than the ship, heightening the sense of quiet tension and lending the painting a folkloric, almost mythic quality. Detail is intentionally minimal: forms are cleanly outlined, shadows reduced, and spatial depth suggested through gentle tonal shifts rather than realism.

    The palette is restrained and harmonious. Cool blues define the water, transitioning subtly from lighter tones near the surface to deeper shades around the whale’s body. The whale itself is painted in rich navy with a creamy white underbelly marked by rhythmic linear grooves. Above, the ship’s black hull, red funnels and white superstructure introduce strong contrast against the soft grey sky.

    Brushwork is smooth and controlled, with flat, even applications of paint that emphasise shape and silhouette. The water shows delicate horizontal strokes, adding quiet movement while preserving the composition’s calm clarity.

    This oil on board is presented in an ornate gilt frame, its elaborate carving and warm gold tones intentionally echoing the grandeur of the Lusitania. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

  • Lesser Spotted Dogfish

    Lesser Spotted Dogfish

    $768.00

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A visually engaging contemporary naïve style painting depicting two Lesser Spotted Dogfish gliding in quiet formation beneath gently rippling waters, executed in oil onto panel by British artist Matt Rix.

    Set against a softly modulated blue sea, the pair move horizontally across the composition, their elongated bodies and distinctive spotted markings rendered with clarity and playful precision.

    Executed in a naïve style, the work embraces simplified form and flattened perspective. The fish are presented in profile, their proportions slightly stylised to emphasise pattern and silhouette over anatomical realism. The repetition of the two figures creates a pleasing sense of rhythm and balance, lending the composition a calm, almost decorative quality.

    The palette is harmonious and restrained. The cool blue water is built from subtle tonal variations, with light, horizontal strokes suggesting surface movement. In contrast, the dogfish are painted in warm sandy tones, scattered with rhythmic brown spots that animate their forms. Fine linear details define the fins and gill markings, adding gentle texture without disrupting the painting’s graphic simplicity.

    Brushwork is smooth and controlled, with flat, even applications of paint enhancing the bold outlines and clean silhouettes. Delicate, feathered strokes in the background provide atmosphere while allowing the spotted patterning to remain the focal point.

    This oil on board is presented in a dark wooden frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

  • Abstract Horizon

    Abstract Horizon

    $1,151.00

    Available

    Free UK Shipping Only.

    A mid-century modernist abstract landscape painting that captures a rugged, windswept terrain through expressive and gestural brushwork, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The composition evokes an expansive natural scene, possibly an autumnal field or rocky desert, with layered horizontal bands of colour suggesting depth and movement. The artist has used bold black forms scattered across the canvas, which could represent geological formations, shadows, or abstracted land contours.

    Rendered in a striking palette of earthy ochres, deep rusts, and burnt yellows, the warm hues contrast dramatically against the bolder black strokes. The upper section features a pale beige sky, creating a sense of atmospheric openness that enhances the composition’s spatial depth.

    The painting is executed with raw, gestural brushstrokes and areas of impasto, adding an energetic and dynamic quality.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary white painted wood frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some scuffing.

    $716.00

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A charming and whimsical naïve style contemporary painting of a maritime scene, executed in oil onto panel by British artist Matt Rix.

    A white beluga whale glides through rich blue waters, while above the horizon a tall sailing ship drifts beneath a soft pink sky dotted with small clouds.

    Executed in a contemporary naïve style, the painting embraces clarity over realism. Perspective is intentionally flattened, proportions are stylised, and forms are reduced to their essential shapes. This simplicity enhances its whimsical, almost folkloric quality. The composition is clean and balanced, with strong horizontal divisions that give the work a calm, meditative rhythm.

    The palette is bold yet harmonious: deep blues contrast beautifully with the warm rose-pink sky, while the pale whale stands out as the focal point. Brushwork appears smooth and controlled, with areas of flat, opaque colour that emphasise the graphic quality of the composition.

    This oil on board is housed in a brown painted wood frame with an inner gilt window. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

  • Nude in Soft Light

    Nude in Soft Light

    $1,441.00

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A brilliantly executed expressive mid-century figurative painting that presents a standing female nude, captured in a moment of quiet composure, painted in oil onto board and dated 1957.

    The figure stands upright, one arm gently extended to rest upon a vertical form while the other arm falls loosely by her side. Her face is intentionally softened and undefined, directing attention instead to posture, gesture, and the interplay of light across the body.

    Rendered in a distinctly modernist style, the composition balances figuration with abstraction. The body is constructed through confident, sculptural brushwork: planes of brown, sand, olive, and muted rose build form through tonal shifts rather than precise line. The artist uses broad, directional strokes that remain visible and tactile, giving the surface a sense of movement and immediacy.

    The palette is earthy and restrained: warm flesh tones contrast against a cool, chalky white background layered with subtle greys and hints of pale blue. The isolated blue vertical accent at the left provides a visual counterweight and anchors the composition.

    Brushstrokes are expressive and gestural, applied with a loaded brush in sweeping, confident passes. Areas of thicker impasto sit alongside thinner, scumbled layers, creating depth and texture. The figure’s contours are suggested rather than strictly defined, lending the work a softness and modern elegance typical of mid-century European studio practice.

    The overall effect is contemplative and quietly powerful, a study in form, balance, and painterly restraint.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame with red undertones.  Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Orca and Steamship

    Orca and Steamship

    $682.00

    Sold

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking naïve style contemporary painting that captures a moment of quiet drama at sea, executed in oil onto panel by British artist Matt Rix.

    A monumental orca glides across softly undulating waters, its bold black-and-white form commanding the foreground. Behind it, a stylised steamship sails calmly across the horizon, smoke rising in gentle puffs toward a pale, clouded sky. In the distance, faint mountainous silhouettes dissolve into mist, creating a sense of depth while maintaining the painting’s charming simplicity.

    Executed in a naïve style, the work embraces flat perspective and deliberate scale distortion.  The whale is rendered larger than life in relation to the ship, lending the scene a dreamlike, storytelling quality. The composition feels almost folkloric, as if suspended between reality and imagination.

    The palette is restrained yet effective: cool blues dominate the sea and sky, layered in soft tonal shifts, while the orca’s deep matte black contrasts crisply against its creamy white markings. The ship introduces earthy browns, subtly grounding the scene.

    Brushwork is controlled and minimal, with smooth, even application across the whale’s body and ship, enhancing their graphic clarity. The water and sky show slightly more texture, with gentle horizontal strokes suggesting movement and atmosphere without disrupting the overall calm. The result is a piece that feels both playful and contemplative: bold in silhouette, serene in mood.

    This oil on board is housed in a brown painted wood frame with an inner gilt window. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

  • Quiet Farmstead

    Quiet Farmstead

    $819.00

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A calm and serene mid-century landscape that captures a rural farmstead in its most distilled and poetic form, executed in oil onto canvas.

    Three angular barns sit low against an expansive, powder-blue sky, their pitched roofs forming a rhythmic sequence of geometric silhouettes. Bare trees rise slender and vertical, softening the strong triangular architecture and anchoring the composition in a quiet seasonal stillness.

    Rendered in a restrained, modernist style, the painting balances abstraction and representation. The barns are simplified into bold planes of colour, while hedgerows and fields are reduced to blocks of earthy brown and moss green. The pale turquoise sky provides a luminous backdrop, creating a gentle contrast against the grounded, darker foreground.

    Brushstrokes are confident. Broad, flat applications of paint define the land and sky, while looser, slightly feathered strokes articulate the trees and subtle shifts in the terrain. The paint handling is matte and softly textured, allowing the composition’s geometry and colour relationships to take precedence over detail.

    This oil on canvas is housed in an elegant linen-lined wood frame with an inner white and silver border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • The Figs

    The Figs

    $844.00

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A poised mid-century still life that presents a quietly architectural composition, executed in oil onto board.

    This composition centres on three deep green figs resting in a shallow tray. Behind them rises a stylised facade, a simplified portico with an arched window and triangular pediment rendered in flattened planes of muted blush, sage and cream.

    The style reflects a distinctly mid-century sensibility: pared back, structured, and contemplative. Forms are simplified into essential shapes of ovals, triangles, rectangles, and the architectural backdrop introduces a sense of order and symmetry, contrasting beautifully with the organic curves of the figs.

    The palette is restrained and harmonious. Moss greens and olive tones dominate the fruit, offset by chalky whites, dusty rose, pale yellow and cool grey-blues in the surrounding space. Light appears to enter from the side, casting gentle shadows that anchor the composition and add depth without disrupting its calm balance.

    Brushstrokes are confident and visible, with a slightly dry, textured application that allows the canvas weave to subtly show through. The paint is layered in broad, deliberate strokes – particularly in the background – while the figs themselves are modelled with softer blending, giving them a quiet solidity and presence.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary  wide profile gilt frame.  Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Winter Light

    Winter Light

    $810.00

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An expressive mid-century landscape that captures the stillness of a winter marsh, where a broad expanse of pale water or frost-covered ground stretches across the foreground, reflecting the muted sky above, executed in oil onto canvas.

    Slender, leafless trees rise along the water’s edge, their dark trunks and branches creating elegant vertical accents against the open, horizontal sweep of the landscape. In the distance, softened forms of woodland and low terrain recede into shadow, lending the scene a quiet sense of depth and solitude.

    The painting is rendered in a confident, painterly style characteristic of mid-century modernist landscapes. The artist has used loose, gestural brushwork to suggest rather than define, allowing texture and movement to convey atmosphere. The surface reveals thickly applied passages of paint in the foreground, where creamy whites, pale greys, and soft blues evoke frost, water, or snow. These cooler tones are subtly enlivened by touches of ochre, rust, and mossy green, suggesting winter grasses and reeds catching the last warmth of the season.

    The sky is painted in layered shades of muted blue and grey, applied in broad, sweeping strokes that create a soft, overcast luminosity. The trees are articulated with darker, more deliberate lines, their vertical rhythm grounding the composition and framing the open space beyond. Overall, the painting balances abstraction and representation, capturing not just the physical landscape, but its mood: serene, introspective, and quietly poetic.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a very well-suited linen lined wood frame that complements atmospheric palette beautifully. The painting itself is in very good vintage condition. There are minor scuffs to the inner frame, and a small area of loss to the bottom right corner of the outer frame, consistent with age, but this does not detract from the overall appearance.

    A pale winding pathway leads the viewer’s eye through a soft green foreground toward a tranquil shoreline and expansive horizon beyond. Two slender trees stand as quiet sentinels at the centre of the composition, their vertical forms offering a subtle counterpoint to the horizontal bands of land, sea, and sky. On the left, a gently rising bluff adds structure and depth, while rounded, sculptural foliage frames the scene with a sense of intimacy.

    The painting is executed in a modernist, semi-abstracted style characteristic of mid-century landscape painting, where natural forms are simplified into harmonious blocks of colour and shape. The artist prioritises mood and spatial clarity over fine detail, creating a composition that feels both contemplative and timeless.

    The colour palette is fresh and calming, composed of cool sky blues, soft sea greys, and layered greens ranging from muted sage to deeper forest tones. The sandy pathway is rendered in warm, pale cream, providing contrast and guiding visual movement throughout the work. These balanced tones evoke the quiet stillness of a coastal morning or early afternoon.

    Brushwork is deliberate and structured, with visible, confident strokes that build form through layered colour rather than blended transitions. The foliage is constructed with confident, blocky applications of paint, while the sky and distant water are handled more smoothly, reinforcing the sense of atmospheric depth.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary linen lined wood frame with an inner silver border. The painting is in good vintage condition overall. The frame has small scuffs and marks, also consistent with age.

  • Pear Arrangement

    Pear Arrangement

    $1,611.00

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A charming and characterful interior still life composition executed in tempera on board and dated 1978, by the established Swedish artist Eric Cederberg (1897-1984), whose artworks have been represented in several public and museum collections across Sweden.

    Small yet very effective in its composition, this still life presents a carefully arranged grouping of pears, a ceramic vessel, and a jug rendered with clarity, charm, and a distinctly modern sensibility. The composition centres on two luminous green pears nestled in a scalloped turquoise bowl, accompanied by a fourth pear in the foreground and a halved pear resting nearby. To the right, a sculptural brown jug anchors the scene with a grounded solidity, while a single stylised leaf rises elegantly from a pear against a radiant golden backdrop, dotted with rhythmic points of light.

    The artist has employed a flattened perspective, where spatial depth is secondary to shape, balance, and decorative harmony. Forms are simplified into bold silhouettes and geometric masses, giving each object a sculptural presence. The background is thoughtfully divided into zones of warm gold, soft neutral tones, and rich terracotta red, creating a structured yet lively interplay between colour fields.

    The palette is vibrant yet controlled, featuring fresh green pears contrasted against a warm, earthy table surface and a glowing mustard-gold backdrop. The cool turquoise of the bowl provides a refreshing counterpoint, while the deep brown jug introduces tonal weight and balance. The dotted golden background adds a playful, almost textile-like quality, enhancing the painting’s decorative appeal.

    Executed in tempera, the brushwork is smooth and precise, with a matte, velvety surface typical of the medium. Edges are clean and deliberate, emphasising contour and form rather than painterly gesture. Subtle tonal variations within the pears and jug provide volume without disrupting the overall graphic clarity. The result is a work that feels both intimate and confidently composed – celebrating everyday objects through the lens of mid-century design, where simplicity, colour, and form coexist in harmonious balance.

    This tempera on board is presented in a beautifully complementary gilt frame with a deep profile, and with a striking green velvet inner border that creates a strong visual contrast. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some marks present to its top edge as shown.

  • Sushi & Sake

    Sushi & Sake

    $998.00

    Available

    Free UK Shipping Only.

    A large and striking contemporary painting that presents a vibrant Japanese-themed still life celebrating the ritual of sushi and sake, executed in acrylic onto canvas and dated 2003.

    Four boldly coloured fish are arranged in a neat horizontal line across a yellow tabletop, evoking the careful presentation of sushi before it is served. They are accompanied by a sake bottle, matching cups, chopsticks, and a small dish of rice, creating a scene that feels ceremonial, abundant, and quietly joyful.

    The composition draws on Japanese visual traditions while remaining distinctly modern. Forms are simplified and stylised, with a graphic clarity that recalls both folk art and mid-century illustration. Decorative foliage frames the scene, adding movement and balance while subtly referencing nature.

    The colour palette is striking and playful. Rich reds, cobalt blue, deep forest green, and warm golden yellow are set against a soft sky-blue background and a creamy, sunlit tabletop. The high-contrast colours give the work a lively, contemporary energy, while black and white accents ground the composition and provide visual rhythm.

    Brushstrokes are smooth and controlled, with flat, even applications of paint that emphasise form over texture. Fine line details and dotted highlights bring gentle depth and refinement to the surface without breaking the clean, graphic quality of the work. The overall effect is bold yet harmonious, a modern homage to Japanese dining culture, celebration, and shared moments at the table.

    This artwork on canvas is housed in a complementary white floater frame. The painting has some very minor surface marks that are commensurate with age and do not detract from the overall composition.

  • The Fireplace

    The Fireplace

    $682.00

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A charming mid-century interior painting that captures the serene presence of a masonry fireplace, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1968.

    The fireplace stands centrally, its sculptural form softened by rounded contours and pale plaster surfaces, suggesting both warmth and architectural dignity. To the left, an open doorway reveals a glimpse of an adjoining room. A narrow woven runner stretches across the floor, guiding the eye horizontally and grounding the composition in the rhythm of everyday life. Simple fireplace tools rest quietly beside the hearth, reinforcing the intimate domestic atmosphere.

    Executed in a restrained modernist style, the artist balances representation with subtle abstraction. Forms are simplified yet retain their essence, allowing structure and light to take precedence over intricate detail. The composition feels calm and deliberate, with an emphasis on spatial harmony and gentle geometry.

    The colour palette is soft and muted, composed of chalky whites, warm creams, pale sage greens, and cool greys, accented by dusty blues and understated earthy browns within the firebox. These tones create a tranquil, contemplative mood, evoking diffused daylight and the quiet comfort of interior spaces during colder seasons.

    Brushstrokes are visible and tactile, applied with a confident yet delicate hand. The paint surface reveals subtle layering, with thin washes and lightly textured passages that allow the weave of the canvas to emerge. Edges are softly blended rather than sharply defined, lending the work a dreamlike softness. The artist’s handling of light and form conveys both immediacy and restraints.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary slim wood frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has very minor scuffs.

  • Geometric Harvest

    Geometric Harvest

    $1,185.00

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking modernist still life that presents a vibrant arrangement of fruit abstracted into a dynamic composition of intersecting planes and softened geometry, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1950.

    The familiar forms of citrus and rounded vessels are deconstructed and reassembled into a rhythmic interplay of curves, arcs, and angular shapes, inviting the viewer to experience the still life as both object and structure. Rather than depicting fruit in literal terms, the artist captures its essence through balance, weight, and spatial tension.

    Executed in a refined modernist style, the composition reflects the influence of Cubism and post-war abstraction, where form and colour take precedence over realism. Overlapping shapes create depth while maintaining a flattened picture plane, lending the work a quiet architectural quality. The arrangement rests within a harmonious equilibrium, suggesting careful deliberation and confident restraint.

    The palette is both playful and sophisticated, featuring soft pastel tones of peach, lemon yellow, sage green, muted lilac, and warm coral, contrasted with grounding passages of charcoal, slate grey, and black. These colours are thoughtfully distributed across the surface, allowing light tones to advance and darker forms to anchor the composition.

    Brushwork is smooth and controlled, with areas of matte, even application that emphasise the clarity of form. Subtle variations in opacity and tone reveal the artist’s hand, while clean edges between colour fields enhance the geometric precision. The surface possesses a quiet tactility, reinforcing the contemplative nature of the work.

    Overall, this painting exemplifies the mid-century modernist pursuit of harmony between abstraction and representation, transforming an everyday still life into a refined study of form, colour, and compositional balance.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a unique and well-suited wood frame featuring a wide, softly textured border in a warm tone. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some age-appropriate marks which do not detract from its overall presentation.

  • The Laundry Room

    The Laundry Room

    $1,066.00

    Available

    Free UK Shipping Only.

    A lively 1977 interior figurative painting that captures a lively domestic moment within what appears to be a laundry room,  executed in oil onto canvas.

    A group of women are absorbed in their individual tasks: lifting sheets, folding linen, tending to fabrics, and moving rhythmically through the shared space. The presence of cribs in the foreground adds a gentle narrative rhythm, evoking themes of care, routine, and collective responsibility. The scene feels observed rather than staged, offering an intimate glimpse into daily life.

    Executed in a gentle modernist figurative style, the composition prioritises atmosphere and emotion over strict realism. Figures are simplified and slightly elongated, their forms softened into painterly silhouettes. The spatial arrangement guides the eye fluidly from foreground to background, creating a sense of continuity between the women, their tasks, and the surrounding architecture. Tall arched windows allow light to pour into the space, reinforcing the feeling of calm routine and shared purpose.

    The palette is dominated by delicate, muted tones – powder blues, greens, soft creams, and pale lavenders – punctuated by warmer accents of rust, ochre, and terracotta in the figures’ garments. These gentle colour harmonies evoke cleanliness, light, and quiet introspection, reinforcing the contemplative tone of the scene.

    Brushwork is loose, expressive, and economical. Forms are suggested rather than fully defined, with thin veils of paint layered transparently to create softness and luminosity. Edges blur into one another, allowing figures and environment to merge subtly, while occasional firmer strokes articulate gestures and movement. The overall effect is intimate and atmospheric, capturing not only a place, but the lived rhythm and quiet humanity of shared work.

    This oil on canvas is is housed in a complementary slim white wooden frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition. 

    Size: 67 x 87 cm (including frame)

  • The Waiting Place

    The Waiting Place

    $955.00

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A compelling mid-century abstract figurative painting that presents a gathering of elongated figures arranged in quiet proximity, executed in oil onto board.

    The forms appear engaged in a shared moment: perhaps at a waiting place or a gathering, but their identities remain deliberately obscured.

    Rendered in a distinctly modernist style, the composition balances abstraction with figuration. The figures are reduced to essential silhouettes and planar shapes, their coats and hats suggested through angular geometry and softened contours. There is a subtle architectural structure anchoring the composition, with vertical elements lending a sense of stillness and gravitas.

    The palette is restrained and sophisticated, dominated by muted greys, smoky charcoals, warm browns, and off-whites, punctuated by accents of crimson, burnt sienna, and soft rose. These warmer notes glow subtly from the centre, creating a quiet internal luminosity that draws the viewer inward. The tonal contrasts between light and dark figures create rhythm and spatial depth while maintaining an atmospheric cohesion.

    The brushwork is expressive yet controlled, combining thin washes with dry, textured passages. Edges dissolve and re-emerge, allowing forms to hover between presence and absence. Vertical strokes emphasise the standing figures, while softer blended areas create a sense of movement and ambiguity. This interplay between structure and dissolution is characteristic of mid-century abstraction, lending the painting both emotional resonance and formal sophistication.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary grey painted wood frame with an inner white border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has a white mark to the bottom right corner of the outer frame but this does not detract from the overall composition.

  • Chromatic Constellation

    Chromatic Constellation

    $955.00

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A vibrant and energetic abstract composition where colour, movement, and gesture converge in a dynamic visual dialogue, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The surface is alive with bold, biomorphic forms and spontaneous splashes that seem to hover and collide within an expansive field of pale cerulean blue. Large organic shapes in saturated green, deep ultramarine, mustard yellow, and inky black anchor the composition, while vivid red splatters and fine white linear streaks cut across the canvas like bursts of energy or fleeting trajectories.

    At the heart of the painting, a luminous circular yellow form radiates warmth and presence, acting as both focal point and counterbalance to the surrounding asymmetrical shapes. The artist masterfully juxtaposes areas of dense opacity with translucent washes, creating depth and rhythm. Smaller droplets of silver-grey and scattered pigment add a sense of cosmic randomness, enhancing the impression of movement and spontaneity.

    The brushwork ranges from smooth, deliberate blocks of colour to expressive drips, splashes, and flicked paint which are hallmarks of Abstract Expressionist technique. Thick, gestural strokes coexist with fluid pours and delicate splatters, revealing the artist’s physical engagement with the canvas. The layering of pigment creates subtle textures and visual tension, inviting the viewer to explore the painting’s surface and uncover new relationships between form and colour.

    Overall, the painting evokes a sense of joyful immediacy and intuitive creation. It is an orchestration of colour and gesture that feels both spontaneous and deeply intentional.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary champagne frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Still Coast

    Still Coast

    $776.00

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A calm and meditative mid-century modernist coastal landscape that captures the hushed stillness of an estuary unfolding beneath a pale, overcast sky, executed in oil onto canvas.

    A winding shoreline curves gently through the composition, guiding the eye toward distant headlands softened by atmospheric haze. On the right, a cluster of slender, darkened trees rises from the embankment, their vertical forms providing a striking counterpoint to the broad, horizontal calm of the water and shoreline. The scene feels suspended in a moment of winter quiet: timeless, contemplative, and deeply serene.

    Executed in a restrained modernist style, the artist has reduced the landscape to essential forms and tonal relationships. The composition balances abstraction with recognisable geography, allowing negative space and subtle tonal shifts to carry emotional weight. The muted palette – comprising soft greys, chalky whites, warm taupes, and earthy browns – enhances the sense of stillness, evoking coastal light diffused through cloud and mist.

    The brushwork is confident, with broad, sweeping strokes used to suggest water, sand, and sky. Areas of dry brush and lightly textured paint create gentle variation across the surface, while darker, more defined strokes anchor the composition and introduce structure. This interplay between softness and structure reflects the modernist pursuit of mood and form over literal detail.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary frame finished in a muted champagne-silver tone. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Coastal Fields

    $1,015.00

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A soothing mid-century modernist landscape that distils the essence of a coastal countryside into a harmonious arrangement of simplified forms and tonal planes, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1965.

    Rolling fields stretch gently toward a distant shoreline, where muted hills dissolve into a tranquil horizon beneath a softly weathered sky. A cluster of whitewashed structures sits quietly within the terrain, offering a subtle human presence amid the expansive natural setting.

    Executed in a restrained modernist style, the composition reflects the mid-century inclination toward abstraction while remaining grounded in the landscape tradition. The artist has reduced the scenery into layered, geometric passages, allowing the rhythm of land and sea to unfold through balanced shapes rather than literal detail. This approach creates a sense of calm structure and contemplative stillness, inviting the viewer to experience the landscape as both place and memory.

    The colour palette is beautifully subdued and earthy, featuring sandy ochres, pale sage greens, chalky creams, and deep olive tones. These are complemented by a band of muted teal and blue along the horizon, suggesting distant water or sky.

    The brushwork is textural yet controlled, with areas of dry brush and impasto that allow the weave of the canvas to emerge through the paint surface. Edges are softly broken and irregular, lending the composition an organic, tactile quality. This interplay between material texture and simplified form enhances the painting’s atmospheric presence, embodying the quiet elegance and thoughtful restraint characteristic of mid-century modernist landscape painting.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a refined and well-suited frame with gilt mouldings and an inner linen window. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    $776.00

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A beautifully restrained mid-century abstract landscape that distils the essence of open countryside into a series of quiet, expressive gestures, executed in oil onto board.

    The composition unfolds horizontally, suggesting rolling fields and distant hills softened by atmosphere and distance. Rather than describing a specific place, the artist captures the feeling of land, its stillness, breadth, and gentle undulation.

    The palette is subtle and earthy, dominated by layered greens ranging from moss and olive to brighter, more luminous passages that suggest fresh grass or sunlight breaking through cloud. These tones are grounded by muted browns, evoking soil and natural terrain, while soft washes of pale grey and off-white above create a vast, overcast sky. A darker, almost charcoal passage to the right anchors the composition, providing contrast and visual weight.

    The brushwork is loose, gestural, and confident. Broad horizontal strokes define the landscape planes, while thinner, vertical marks in the foreground suggest grasses or reeds, lending a sense of immediacy and texture. Areas of exposed ground and visible canvas contribute to the painting’s modernist sensibility, allowing the viewer to witness the artist’s process and movement.

    Grove in Repose

    $870.00

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A compelling abstract landscape with figures composition, painted in oil  in 1946 by the established Swedish artist Ivar Morsing (1919-2009), whose works have been exhibited in public collections including the National Museum in Stockholm, Moderna Museet in Stockholm, Kalmar Museum, and Jönköping Museum.

    A loose procession of trees stands across a gently undulating terrain, their elongated trunks and clustered canopies forming rhythmic vertical accents against an expansive, open ground. The composition suggests a quiet pathway or clearing, inviting the viewer into a moment of stillness and contemplation.

    Small yet effective in its composition, the artist balances abstraction with suggestion, allowing the trees and landforms to emerge through simplified silhouettes and gestural marks. The scene feels atmospheric rather than descriptive, prioritising mood and spatial harmony over precise detail.

    The colour palette is beautifully restrained, featuring soft sandy browns, muted greens, and warm earth tones, offset by cooler hints of blue-grey and. Subtle variations in tone create depth while maintaining a cohesive, meditative calm throughout the composition.

    The brushwork is expressive, with dry-brush textures and broken strokes allowing the raw canvas to breathe through the paint layers. Areas of loose stippling and softened edges lend the trees a sense of movement and presence, while the open ground is rendered with broader, horizontal sweeps that enhance the painting’s quiet, expansive atmosphere.

    $682.00

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A delicate mid-century landscape that captures a quiet grove of slender trees emerging through a veil of winter haze, executed in oil onto canvas.

    Three distinct trunks: one cool blue, one pale ivory, and one warm reddish-brown – stand gently apart, their forms softened by the atmospheric frost and mist that envelop the scene. The composition conveys a sense of calm solitude, as if the landscape itself has fallen into a moment of suspended breath.

    Rendered in a restrained, poetic palette of icy blues, muted lavenders, silvery greys, and mossy greens, the painting reflects mood and abstraction over strict realism. The background dissolves into layered washes of colour, suggesting distant forms and frozen ground without overt definition.

    The artist has used loose, expressive brushwork, combining thin, translucent layers with areas of thicker impasto. Vertical strokes elongate the trees, lending them a graceful, almost calligraphic presence, while scumbled textures and softly blended passages create a sense of depth and atmosphere.

    Overall, the work achieves a delicate balance between representation and abstraction, evoking the emotional resonance of a winter landscape rather than its precise physical details.
